1. Lingüista computacional
De: Linguist List, Suzanne Coleman
<resourcemgt at classic.msn.com>

    Our client is looking for a Spanish Computational
Linguist and a French Computational Linguist for
one-year contract positions. Persons interested in
these positions may send their resumes to Parker
Professional Search via email to esourcemgt at msn.com.
Or resumes may be sent by fax to Parker Professional
Search-Linguist at 206-223-8227 (United States phone
number). A description of the positions is listed
below.

COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTS for French and Spanish
lexicography

    A large U.S.-based software company is looking
for computational lexicographers for French and
Spanish.  These 1-year contract positions will be
located in Redmond, Washington, USA.  This is a great
opportunity to work with a dedicated group of
researchers who are creating broad-based Spanish and
French parsers, and an experienced product team who
will ship grammar checking products based on the core
parsing technology.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
    The lexicographer's primary responsibilities
include maintaining the dictionary used by the parser
and grammar checker, working with one full-time
lexicographer already on staff (for each language).

QUALIFICATIONS:
    The lexicographer's qualifications should include
experience in linguistic research and online
dictionary development, keen interest in lexical
issues, and an advanced degree in linguistics or a
closely related discipline.  Fluency in the language
is assumed. A practical orientation is highly
desirable. Significant programming experience or
experience extracting lexical information from online
dictionaries or corpora would be a plus.

ABOUT THE GROUP:
    We are in the process of designing and building a
system to analyze unrestricted natural language,
taking input text, and moving from
lexical/morphological analysis through syntax,
semantics, and eventually pragmatics and discourse.
A generation component is also planned. We focus our
efforts both on core computational linguistic
research, and on shipping products that provide real
benefit to the computer user.
